Abstract

The invention relates to a method for actively controlling in a feedback control at least one output parameter (f i , V i , P i , Q i ) of a decentralized power generating unit ( 1 ) feeding power into a power supply grid ( 14 ) having a plurality of such decentralized power generating units, the power generating unit ( 1 ) being coupled to the grid ( 14 ) at a grid tied point ( 16 ). The actual resistance (R i ), reactance (X i ) and magnitude (|Z i |) of the impedance (Z i ) of the power generating unit ( 1 ) at the tied point ( 16 ) is determined and a first quotient (R i /|Z i |) between the resistance (R i ) and impedance magnitude (|Z i |) and a second quotient (X i /|Z i |) between the reactance (X i ) and the impedance magnitude (|Z i |) is calculated. These quotients (R i /|Z i |, X i /|Z i |) are used for the feedback control of the at least one output parameter (f i , V i , P i , Q i ).
